FMPC changes CIP priorities

Farragut’s proposed gun ordinance draws fire

■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Farragut Municipal Planning Commission unanimously approved a motion to look at amending the Capital Investment Plan to shift item priorities.

“I’ll make a motion then that we look at amending the CIP plan to reprioritize these four items: to make improvement of Everett Road to the entrance of Split Rail Farms first; second, another phase or phases to McFee Park; third, the improvement of Everett Road from Smith to Union, and fourth, with the potential of perhaps moving it out of the Five-Year Plan if need be, improvements to Union Road,” Alderman and Commissioner Ron Honken said. “And mixed in all that is the comments about reduction of funds into the land acquisition.”

The shift would prioritize Everett Road over Union Road, instead of the other way around.

Honken sees McFee Park as a Town outdoor community center, he said.

“That is a large piece of property,” he said. “It has great potential, not only to bring value to the people that live here but to bring value to the people that will come here for outdoor events, tournaments.”

He suggested adding money to the land acquisition fund more slowly and using money for the park.

“So what I would like to see is, again, take some of those dollars that we’re looking to put into the land See FMPC on Page 2A

Differences between Mayor Ralph McGill and Bill Johns, former Town mayoral candidate, concerning a possible Farragut mandatory gun ownership ordinance could be boiled down to what McGill views as practical versus what Johns thinks is marketable.

Throw in Farragut Alderman Bob Markli, who agrees with Johns in favor of such an ordinance — with loopholes for objectors — as his differences versus McGill also include Second Amendment interpretations.

In the hours following publication of his Guestview column in April 18 issue of farragutpress favoring such an ordinance, Johns’ column began whipping up area and regional media attention when Markli announced he’d

“talk to [Board of Mayor and Aldermen] about it, basically to see if it can get any traction.”

Markli didn’t commit at what BOMA meeting that might happen.

“I would think it would be kind of interesting to hold a public referendum, just to see what the people think about it. Probably a good idea.” Markli said.

Johns, a former member of Farragut Economic Development Committee, attended a small press conference Thursday afternoon, April 18, outside of Town Hall.

“This is a symbolic marketing type of ordinance, to help an economic development build our brand,” Johns said.

“The buzz that’s being created” in the media “has put us on the radar of all the companies that are starting to flee

Though they didn’t hear the twin blasts that have tragically altered scores of innocent lives during Boston Marathon 2013, Jonathan and Betsy Johnson had a 29th floor view of the finish line.

About 3:30 p.m., roughly 40 minutes after the two bombs detonated, “Right underneath us they had, I would say, probably 15 to 20 ambulances all waiting in this one spot,” said Jonathan, a member of The Rotary Club of Farragut, who along with his wife were two of almost 27,000 participants never to forget Monday afternoon, April 15. “It was all police, Bomb Squad, SWAT Team peoSee RUNNERS on Page 3A

STEPHANIE EDWARDS Correspondent

Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved its first reading of 12 new International Building Codes during its Thursday, April 11 meeting.

According to Town administrator David Smoak, the Town is required to update codes every seven years.

“We try to make changes the same time as Knox County and the City of

Knoxville to make it easier for people who are doing business in our area,” Smoak said. “The main changes are to the energy codes to make buildings more energy efficient … something a lot of builders are doing now any way.”

Proposed Ordinance 1308 would require tighter duct work in new constructions, by increasing the regulated duct tightness standards over the next three years.

A required, cutting edge

duct leakage test would allow builders to produce increasingly more efficient buildings, preventing air leakage both in and outside of homes and businesses.

Additionally, a blower door test would give builders insight into where air is escaping, helping ensure more energy efficiency and tightening up the building envelope, keeping hot or cold air See BOMA on Page 2A

inside the building. Builders would be required to submit the results from both tests to Town building officials, who would then inspect structures for compliance. Another segment of the ordinance would require more insulation in ceilings, floor slabs and crawlspaces, helping make for an even more energy efficient home or business.

“My house was built in the 1970s, and with as much money as I spent replacing windows and doors, I would have been happy to pay this on the front end,” said Ruth Hawk, Community Development director. “I have spent much more than this trying to make my home more energy efficient. It’s smart financially to do [these tests].”

Another proposed ordinance, 13-03, deals with fire safety, especially that for larger build-

the New England area, Colorado.”

Such an ordinance on the books would “give us a Real Estate bump,” added Johns, also a former vice president of Jobs Now program in a 16-county East Tennessee region.

“And just the benefits of reducing crime.”

However, “It is not to be enforced, there’s no registration,” Johns said. “It really doesn’t effect anybody here in our

ings. If passed, the ordinance would require commercial structures in excess of 7,000 square feet per story and two or more stories to have sprinkler systems installed, and for buildings this size to no longer be built as predominately wooden structures.

“We've started to see a trend of moving toward using wooden structures,” said Dan Johnson, Town Fire Marshal during a preBOMA meeting workshop April 11.

Johnson said using a wooden frame for commercial buildings is a cause for concern.

“Their longevity is much shorter, and the fire load is greatly increased,” Johnson said.

He also noted that wooden commercial structures begin deteriorating much sooner than their masonry block counterparts.

“This is a lesson learned ... I've had more than one hotel manager indicate to me, 'we use the community of Farragut,” adding current gun ownership “is probably a large percentage of the existing residents.”

On that same Thursday outside of Town Hall, McGill said, “The Second Amendment gives us the right to own firearms. ... I don’t see what the point is, other than to create controversy where there is none.

“We don’t have much crime.

The most common crime we have here is people breaking into cars,” McGill added.

hotel [with wooden framework] under our name for 10 years, and then we sell it off,” “It's a very complicated building for us to inspect; it's a very complicated building for them to build,” Johnson added.

“If you have a fire, [masonry blocks] help prevent the fire from spreading to nearby buildings.”

Hawk took a moment to point out that a building constructed from masonry blocks is more easily upgraded than a wooden structure, citing Comfort Suites as an example.

“Because it was made out of masonry blocks, its structure made it more viable for renovations,” Hawk said. “We want to keep our buildings longstanding and functioning.”

acquisition fund — not all of them, some of them — and then, as we get the hotel-motel tax, dedicate that income to the land acquisition fund,” he said. “Let’s take some of those dollars, sooner than later, and let’s get moving on McFee Park. I just see that as being such a crown jewel of our community.”

He called the recommended amendments to the plan important.

“We have limited resources,” he said. “I think sometimes our citizens forget that we only have a budget of $7.5 million. We have a couple of projects that if we did them all at one time, would eat up our entire annual budget. So taking this CIP and really priori-

tizing these large expenditures — these are the big-ticket items — is very critical to what we do.

We have to listen to the citizens, and we have to really look at what can we afford to do, and what’s the best time to do it.”

Town assistant administrator Gary Palmer stressed focusing on projects, not numbers, when reviewing the plan.

“Think of this in terms of projects: What projects do you want to see the town fund by priority?”

Palmer said. “And if it’s in line with what we have proposed, we can keep it that way. We can move stuff, but I don’t want you to get hung up on numbers.

Because we need that direction – we need the project direction more than we need the funding direction. The board will have to decide on how we fund.”

ple.”

The Johnsons’ 29th floor Marriott Copley hotel room faced the marathon route’s final few hundred yards “about two blocks from the finish line.”

“People were like, ‘I can’t believe this has happened,’” said Jonathan, who finished the marathon around 1 p.m., then Betsy around 1:50 p.m. having started about 20 minutes after Jonathan.

Jonathan said he was in the hotel elevator headed to his room just before 3 p.m. when he discovered what had happened.

Betsy was in the lobby.

“When the elevator doors opened, something had happened ... people in the hotel said, ‘We felt it,’” Jonathan said, adding about an adjacent mall, “We had to have been in the mall area [when the bombs detonated] and that’s why we never heard anything.”

Jonathan said his wife witnessed “‘all these people running kind of towards the hotel,’ and her thought was, ‘I need to take a picture of this, it’s just so exciting’” thinking it was part of Boston Marathon festivities.

“Then, as people kind of got closer she realized, ‘this isn’t right.’”

The Johnsons’ Marriott hotel “went on lockdown” until Tuesday morning, he said.

Though originally not planning to qualify for Boston Marathon 2014, the couple is

reconsidering, Jonathan said, after he qualified for and ran his fifth Boston Marathon [finishing at 3:01.38] versus Betsy’s “seventh or eighth” [finishing at 3:30.20].

Because of the bombings, “We’re seriously considering changing what we were going to do to run it, just to show people, ‘you can’t do this,’” added Johnson, co-owner of A & W Office Supply. “Just to support that whole community.”

Another Farragut businessman having run five Boston Marathons is Alan Gassel, DVM, founder and co-owner of Concord Veterinary Hospital.

Though he didn’t run this year’s tragic marathon, “I can assure you that I am increasingly set on running it in the future,” Gassel said. “It increases my resolve. You can’t let these people dictate our lifestyles.”

Beyond not letting the terrorist win by being scared away, Jonathan gave specific reasons why Boston Marathon is such an attraction.

“It’s a festive atmosphere,” he said, emphasizing Boston “is different from any other marathon that you do” — including New York Marathon.

“It’s probably that atmosphere for 20 out of the 26 miles. It’s four or five people deep, all yelling, all screaming for everybody,” Jonathan added. “Both sides of the road. It’s just unbelievable.”

In New York, “You have people, but it’s not as enthusiastic,” Jonathan added.

“In my memory, in the 33 years the Town has existed, there have been three murders. ... In all three cases, if everybody owned guns it would not have prevented it.”

Even considering such an ordinance, “I think it reflects badly on the Town,” McGill said.

As for any constituent feedback supporting such an ordinance, “There’s been no mention of such a thing,” McGill said.

In a phone interview later that same Thursday, Markli said he and Johns “had talked. … It sounded like a good idea to me. I knew Kennesaw, Ga., did it in

Though admitting “It’s mainly symbolic ... it’s not enforceable,” Markli added, “I think for a Town like Farragut that doesn’t have a police force, it’s probably a good idea … that it’s known that Farragut supports the rights of its citizens and encourages its citizens to be armed.

letterstotheeditor I just would like to make a few brief points on the Kennesaw, Ga., ordinance benchmark that apparently has generated significant interest.

First and foremost, it is just a symbolic ordinance and there is no participation by anyone no matter where you stand on the issue.

Secondly, I am not an elected official nor is it my ordinance — it is the Kennesaw, Ga., ordinance. I also have no plans on advocating for it anymore than the opinion I already gave in the farragutpress.

As someone who has a public administration, business administration, and economic development background, I like this ordinance and thought it is worthy of a discussion in the public arena as a benchmark.

Although I like it, you may not. If the town of Farragut elected representatives choose to (or not to) pursue it, it is totally up to them.

Thank you for the opportunity of bringing a timely topic to the public’s attention and supporting the recruitment of Second Amendment and like companies to Tennessee in addition to exploring the other positive benefits associated with such an ordinance.

Bill Johns, Farragut Mr. Mayor, I just read the article in today’s News Sentinel about Alderman [Bob] Markli’s plans to present a plan to the Board of Mayor and Alderman, whereby Town households would be required to own a firearm.

This is absolutely the most ridiculous idea I have ever heard, and I want this killed before it goes any further. I don’t even want the Town to consider a version [that] allows one to opt out. I should also make it clear that I have nothing against people owning firearms if they wish to do so.

Perhaps the Town should consider what could happen if someone is killed in their home by a firearm the Town required they own. I’m sure the attorneys would have a field day with that.

Surely the Board has more important things to do than consider this kind of nonsense.

Charles Reeves Jr. Farragut I am writing this letter to make the Farragut Commun-

ity aware of another example of Knox County Schools putting test scores ahead of what is best for our children.

Currently, at Farragut Middle School, advanced seventh- and eighth-grade students have the opportunity to take French. This opportunity allows these students to earn high school foreign language credit. Once these students reach high school this background in French gives them several options. Some may choose to go further in their study of the French language, others may pursue an additional foreign language and some may choose to pursue other areas of interest that otherwise would be taken up by their foreign language requirements. In addition, these FMS students have the privilege to be in the classroom with an exceptional teacher who makes learning fun and has quickly become a favorite of many students.

At the end of this school year, FMS will no longer offer French. The reason is TCAP scores. Students at FMS take a reading class and a language arts class. Both of these classes teach the curriculum that is tested on the Language Arts section of TCAPs. French students (who must score advanced on Language Arts TCAPs to be enrolled) take French in place of the reading class.

FMS and Knox County have decided that having children receive two classes of TCAP prep is preferable to the benefits of learning French (or potentially any high school class taught to middle school students: Spanish, physical science, biology etc.).

In simpler terms, FMS is more concerned with how the schools test “data” looks, than with what is best for our students.

As a parent of a rising seventh grader, I am angry that she will not have the opportunity to take French next year.

As a teacher at FMS, I am ashamed and embarrassed that we are no longer putting students and student learning first, and that as a result FMS is losing another great teacher who truly cares about her students.

KCS and FMS are going to respond to this letter by saying that French was eliminated because of next year’s change to a new schedule: six classes, 75 minutes each.

Their argument is that this schedule eliminates the need

Y

guestview: Bob Markli for several teaching positions and French is the only class that can be eliminated.

The fallacy of this argument is that the decision to go to this new schedule in the first place was made based on the belief that longer classes will increase TCAP scores.

The decisions KCS make almost always put TCAPs and “data” first and what is truly best for our children and their education second.

Mark Taylor Farragut Knox County Schools District recently announced a School Technology Challenge: a competition that “will seek to identify about 10 schools that have the capacity, knowledge, vision and passion to successfully implement a comprehensive instructional technology initiative.” This “technology initiative” is political babble for equipping each student of a selected school with a laptop.

The benefits of such a decision are beyond self-evident; computers have the potential to take education to the next echelon of engagement and innovation.

I applaud Dr. McIntyre and associates for this noble endeavor. The praise ends there.

I am currently a junior at Farragut High School, one of the schools that did not receive funding. I serve as the president of the student body alongside my commitment to athletics and academics. My school administrators were gracious enough to grant me a speech in front of the committee as part of my school’s proposal for this grant. I delivered my rhetoric and left the meeting with confidence that Farragut had secured a great opportunity for my peers.

I know I am young, I know I seem incurably headstrong, and I know many stopped reading at the word Farragut.

It is time for intelligent decisions to be made concerning education. Farragut High School has historically been shunted. It is assumed that our school overflows with rich kids. It is assumed that our facilities are golden. It is assumed that our success is earned not by work but by some angelic gifting forever placed upon our campus.

Farragut does in fact achieve higher than many schools in Knox County, yet that success has nothing to do with our facilities or wealth. In fact the

Recent newspaper stories regarding Farragut resident Bill Johns’ proposal that our Town adopt a very successful, 30 yearold Kennesaw Georgia firearms ordinance, and my support for the idea as an elected Farragut Alderman have created significant public interest. The ordinance reads simply: “Sec. 34-21. Heads of households to maintain firearms. (a) In order to provide for the emergency management of the city, and further in order to provide for and protect the safety, security and general welfare of the city and its inhabitants, every head of household residing in the city limits is required to maintain a firearm, together with ammunition therefore. (b) Exempt from the effect of this section are those heads of households who suffer a physical or mental disability, which would proBob hibit them from Markli using such a Alderman firearm. Further Town of exempt from the F arragut effect of this section are those heads of households who are paupers or who conscientiously oppose maintaining firearms as a result of beliefs or religious doctrine, or persons convicted of a felony.”

This is primarily a symbolic ordinance as it contains no enforcement provision and compels no one to own a firearm. Rather, it reaffirms the intent of the Second Amendment and sends the message that Farragut is an astute community which appreciates its freedom, values its heritage and safety, and is willing to protect it. While many today find it unfashionable to study history or defend liberty, the feedback from my constituents indicates the wide majority solidly align with the nation’s founding intent regarding the relationship between firearms and a free society, the 2nd Amendment, and the symbolic meaning of this ordinance. A public ballot would let them speak for themselves.

The ordinance also serves as a cool voice of reason in the midst of the hysterical cries to “Do something!” in the wake of recent high-profile tragedies. A noisy little cadre of usual suspects from the radical fringes number of students on free or reduced lunch at Farragut is very near the county average.

Our building is falling apart at the seams; ask a student or teacher who works here everyday. We are continually ignored and abused by the “downtown cronies” because of our success.

stands ready to exploit every crisis to make political capital to impose ill-conceived gun control schemes. In the real world any, fiction of law that suggests an elitist politician in a distant city can dictate what a citizen here can or cannot use to protect himself or his family in a desperate situation is the very definition of absurdity.

The town of Farragut has no plans for a dedicated police department, and along with my constituents I believe we are served extremely well by Sheriff Jimmy Jones and the Knox County Sheriff’s department. But, when seconds count, law enforcement will almost always be minutes away. Fortunately, most households in the Town of Farragut do maintain firearms, and adopting the Kennesaw ordinance would reinforce that existing perception and help differentiate Farragut in the region in terms of safety, branding, and economic development.

Facts to consider: Studies indicate that firearms are used over two million times a year for personal protection and that the presence of a firearm, without a shot being fired, prevents crime in many instances.

Cities with the most restrictions on personal firearms have the highest number of gun crimes per capita.

Cities with the highest number of lawful gun owners have the lowest violent crime rates. More guns equal less crime. As the proliferation of firearms has increased over the past 20 years, the number of gun related deaths has steadily declined.

A March, 2013 survey of 400,000 law enforcement officers nationwide with over 15,000 respondents showed that: More than 76 percent indicated that legally armed citizens are important to reducing crime. 80 percent believe legally armed citizens can reduce casualties in incidents of mass violence. More than 91 percent stated they supported the Right-to-Carry by law abiding Americans.

In summary, I believe the proposed ordinance is a common-sense way to: • Reduce crime by sending a clear message to criminals • Increase public safety • Increase property values • Increase desirability to businesses and business owners • Spur economic growth • Send a message to Washington that the citizens of Farragut will not tolerate the erosion of fundamental rights.

Farragut High School’s “A STEM A-ffair” will include a senior who’s dedicated huge chunks of his time to teaching and tutoring, plus another senior looking to place nationally based on scientific prowess.

among more than 25 science and math academy students “presenting the projects, research and shadowing experiences that they participated in this school year,” said Neely Tonos, FHS biology teacher and science academy teacher-mentor, about “A STEM A-ffair.”

With “A STEM A-ffair” also emphasizing that FHS has begun combining science

and math academics into one “STEM” academy, parents and the public are invited to this presentation from 7 to 8:15 p.m., Tuesday, April 30, in FHS Commons.

As a student teacher/tutor from math academy, Garcia labeled it “a great experience” because “my goal to become a teacher has really been realized. The teachers I’ve worked with have been very

kind to me.”

“I’ve found it to a really rewarding, although challenging, experience,” Garcia added. “I’ve been tutoring for three years now, two years for pay, privately. ... And then I tutored as an assistant teacher last semester in four different classes.”

FHS annual Grand Reunion May 4 Second straight year to be held in Virtue Cumberland Presbyterian Church’s Family Life Center

■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Tackling abstract art before age 9, then seeing it displayed for public viewing: a treat enjoyed by a handful of Farragut Primary School students recently.

Other FPS art children, also enjoying a public viewing treat, preferred a cozy bridge scene surrounded by flowers.

Still others chose “crazy-looking animals” according to Stephanie Lundy, who joins Melanie Hammond as FPS’s two art teachers.

Parents joined their artistic FPS children in Farragut Town Hall rotunda Tuesday evening, March 5, as more than 50 works of art from kindergarten through second grade — on display all last week — were enjoyed and admired during a reception.

“I personally believe it helps out in other subjects,” Lundy See FPS on Page 10A

Farragut High School’s annual Grand Reunion is a place where family members of alumni, with no connection to FHS, also are welcome.

“Bring your kids and have some donuts. Let them pig out,” said George Hamilton, FHS Class of 1943, a reunion organizer.

Grand Reunion allows many alumni their only chance every year to meet other alumni, comparing notes on status and wellbeing of families while recalling the glory days of big touchdown runs and friends’ embarrassing dates.

Held each year in the school’s main building Commons area until 2012, Grand Reunion returns for a second straight year to Virtue Cumberland Presbyterian Church’s Family Life Center, 725 Virtue Road, from 8 a.m. to noon, Saturday, May 4.

Event is free.

Icenhour to lead relay fight ■

Photo submitted

Abby Icenhour, then an FHS junior, prepares to participate in a Relay For Life event in November 2011.

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Having witnessed her grandfather, affectionately known as “Pops,” lose his battle with stomach cancer “nearly a year after he was diagnosed,” Abby Icenhour is ready to lead Farragut High School students’ fight against cancer April 26.

“I am such an active supporter of Relay For Life because it reminds me of Pops,” said Icenhour, 17, an FHS senior teaming up with classmate Kayla Jones, as the duo will lead Farragut students who, for the

first time ever, are in charge of annual Farragut Relay For Life.

A “signature fundraiser of the American Cancer Society” according to Lauren Hensley, community representative for American Cancer Society who is “over the Knox County Relays,” Farragut Relay For Life runs from 5:30 to 10 p.m. this Friday on FHS track at Bill Clabo Field.

“We noticed every year at Farragut the Honor Society and the [Student Government Association] group have always had a very strong presence at our relay,” Hensley added. “And we’ve had a lot of kids from Farragut

attend the relays. So we thought it might be fun to do something just for them.”

Despite the reduced hours versus many overnight Relays, Hensley said she’s optimistic fundraising total won’t be seriously down from recent years’ Farragut Relays. “There’s not a lot that happens overnight, because usually at that point it’s just the teams,” she said.

Read it and eat Kristi, my bonus daughter, is like a real daughter to me. We have such fun and yet we’re so different.

This fall we spent t h r e e w e e k s together and the time flew!

One of the Pam days she Young and I went Make it shopping Fun! and ended up in her favorite bookstore. While perusing the miniscule section on home and family, I heard her squeal with joy a few rows over and found her holding Diana Gabaldon’s latest novel in hardback.

“Oh, look, it’s out, I have to get it!”

“Wow, it’s huge!”

“Yeah it’s about a threepounder.”

“Oh, Sweetie, I don’t think it weighs that much, maybe a pound.”

“No, I don’t mean it weighs three pounds, I mean I’ll gain three pounds reading it. I love to eat while I read!”

Kristi is a size three or four so she can afford to put a little “reading cushion” on her petite body, but the notion of eating while reading intrigued me because I can’t do that. I either have to read or eat to fully enjoy either event and if I try to do both simultaneously I miss out on the best of both worlds. And it’s also a good thing for me because I read a lot and I don’t need the extra calories that would find their way into my system via time spent with Michael Connelly.

I was telling my dear friend Jody about Kristi’s comment and she said, “Oh my, I’m like Kristi, I love to eat while I read and I could stand to lose some weight.”

“How can you concentrate on the book if you’re eating?” I asked.

“Well, while I’m actually reading I am chewing and then when I turn the page I take another bite.”

“So you take a bite every time you turn a page?”

“Just about! And I have the books with the big print!” (Jody is in her 80s.)

Then she said, “Wow, I could lose some of this extra weight if I stopped that habit, couldn’t I?” Do you like to eat while you read? My husband does. We read a lot of the same books and I can literally tell what he ate while he read, because invariably the evidence of the snack of choice is left on the pages. I know he ate some left-over barbequed ribs during chapter twelve of Absolute Power, because when I got to that chapter I suddenly had the urge to have ribs.

If you have a habit of eating while you read and you want to lose weight, I wouldn’t suggest cold turkeying it. Start with baby steps. Decide to take a bite on even numbered pages, or at the beginning of a chapter. You could decide to take a bite only when there is an illustration or photo.

(If you try that one, no fair reading comic books.) Just think, you could lose several pounds in the next year depending on how many books you read, and bites you take per page.

Oh, and if you’re like me and you can’t eat and read at the same time, be so thankful!

Just a thought as we head toward the great summer reading season.

asloan@farragutpress.com

Although admitting that her responsibilities within Farragut High School Interact Club’s Leadership Class can be “stressful and frustrating” at times, senior Christine Joyce said adhering to Rotary Club International’s 4Way Test principals provides ultimate rewards.

“As Booker T. Washington once said, ‘Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others,’” said Joyce, president of the school’s Interact Club, who won The Rotary Club of Farragut’s

annual FHS 4-Way Speech Contest (four to six minutes in length) among two other finalists Wednesday, March 20, in Fox Den Country Club.

Winning $500 after being chosen No. 1 by a panel of RCF member judges, Joyce went on to finish third during District 6780 competition, which includes almost all of Middle and East Tennessee, at Tennessee Tech, Cookeville, March 23.

“One of the best examples of where I had to use the 4-Way Test was in my Leadership Class at Farragut High School,” Joyce said about the club’s 4-Way Test dur-

ing her Fox Den competition: Is it the TRUTH? Is it FAIR to all concerned? Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

Is it the truth? Is it beneficial to all concerned? “In this class each semester we are broken up into small groups to complete a service project of our choice. You must use the 4-Way Test to find a place or a need that we feel will help the community the most,” she added. “We then spend hours upon hours working on these See 4-WAY on Page 11A

said about the value of primary age art classes, which take place “at least once a week” at FPS. “There’s problem-solving skills, and it just broadens the imagina-

tion. And it’s good, too, because of art history. You learn about different artists.”

Among all FPS students’ works, “Those who excelled were chosen” for Town Hall display, Lundy said.

No top finishers were chosen among those in Town Hall.

Among the mediums the children used included “print-making; we’re working with oil pastels, paintings with watercolor, tempera [type of paint], conte crayons ... kid-friendly mediums, things that are water soluble,” Hammond said.

projects, continuously asking ourselves questions about the 4-Way Test.

FHS juniors Grace Unbehaun and Tess Waibel also earned the right to compete before RCF members.

Saying she didn’t know what to expect in a leadership class, Unbehaun said, “It turned out that this class set you apart from the school. Leadership [class] has taught me so many lessons, but most importantly it has the ability

to create a leader within each person that walks through the door.

“It took one person to change the way I view the world and make a difference in my life.”

Waibel began by asking the question, “Does everyone have the power, deep down inside them, to do something great?

“It seems like there are always leaders among us, and it all begins with the Rotary 4-Way Test,” Waibel added. “Leadership begins when we quit worrying about ourselves. ... Challenge yourself to make a difference in someone else's life.”

Esther Choo and Adrian Garcia stand in front of a poster similar to what Choo’s FHS science academy will be presenting.

Junior Science and Humanities Symposium in Dayton, Ohio, May 1-5, after finishing second in state.

Choo, 17, spent her mentorship time “at The University of Tennessee in the Scintillation Materials Research Center.

“We created crystals to see if their properties would be adequate in applications like medical imaging devises or homeland security devices,” Choo added. “I shadowed my mentor. I synthesized the crystals then I looked at all its properties and made deductions and results to see if they were a good fit.”

STEM From page 6A

To seek a mathematics degree at Texas A & M University, Garcia, 18, said his academy’s presentation involves “each student choosing his or her own project, and they find a mentor outside of the school. ... Basically walking through whatever we learned.

“My presentation will be focused on what I learned in teaching skills. What I learned with interaction with the students, and how I learned to become a better teacher.”

Choo, an FHS science academy senior, earned a trip to National

“There’s a suggested fee of $10 for participation if you’re going to sign up and register and get your shirt and everything,” Hensley

said. “And for this event, if you’re not already a registered participant, we will be asking for a $5 or more donation at the door [at event site] to kind of help with some of the fundraising stuff.

“For cancer survivors, it's free.”

You don't have to be a team

member to participate.

“If any of the community wants to come out, they’re welcomed,” Hensley said. “We just ask that one person from every team is walking around the track at all times, just as the symbolism of how the event was started.

The Shrimp Dock co-owners Phil Dangel and Becky Dangel started out as customers and ended up owning the place.

They were customers of The Shrimp Dock in Bearden, but they didn’t frequent it because they live in Farragut, Becky Dangel said.

Phil Dangel said he asked the previous owner to go west.

“He didn’t want to come to Farragut, so I said, ‘I’ll tell you what. I’ll do it,’” Phil Dangel said.

The Farragut location is celebrating its fifth anniversary.

He had been looking for a business the town needed.

“I think Farragut is a great town, a good business town and had a need for fresh fish, has plenty of supermarkets, but we’re more than a supermarket,” he said. “We’re fresh fish.

We’re fresh gulf, shrimp. We bring it to you everyday.”

After the opening of the Farragut location, Phil Dangel said he eventually bought the Bearden one and opened another in Alcoa.

Both Phil Dangel and Becky Dangel have been in retailing their entire business careers, Becky Dangel said.

“We were both executives with Macy’s for 20 years in Atlanta, and then we moved here,” Becky Dangel said. “Phil had an opportunity to come work at Goody’s, and I had an opportunity to stay at home and raise our son.”

With their backgrounds, she sees working at The Shrimp Dock as natural.

“There’s never a time in there, when I’m in the stores, that I don’t see somebody I know, and that’s true in any of the three stores,” she said. “It’s just a fun place to go and see people in the community and

introduce them to different kinds of seafood or different ways to cook seafood, sort of take them out of their comfort level of one or two kinds of fish to trying all sorts of things, trying different species of fish, trying different kinds of shellfish, trying different recipes.”

What makes the store stand out begins with the freshness of the food, Phil Dangel said.

“We get deliveries six days a week of fresh shrimp, fresh fish, crawfish, oysters,” Phil Dangel said.

The store also offers product knowledge, he said.

“We can tell you how to cook it, what to do with it, how to handle it, and we can give you recipes,” he said.

The seafood market serves lunch, Becky Dangel said.

“The store has full kitchens because we make all of our own soups, dips, spreads, quiches, seafood pies, and it was a natural outgrowth of having a fullfledged kitchen to start a lunch business,” Becky Dangel said.

“Lunch was started in the Bearden store, and we have

served lunch from day one in Farragut. The first year, we added a fish fry Friday during Lent that was so successful that we always cook until 7 on Fridays only. That’s the only night we do dinner.”

The Farragut location, at 11124 Kingston Pike, has had steady customers throughout its time, she said.

“It has developed a good catering base,” she said.

“People call us repeatedly, year after year, to come and do events for them, whether it’s graduations or just a weekend party, shrimp boil. We’ve developed a great reputation for customer service and fresh seafood.”

Prom season gives local businesses a boost ■ ROBBY O’DANIEL

rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Prom season is in full swing, and that makes tuxedos, dresses and limos in demand.

Reca Cagle, Knoxville Prom 101 co-owner, said the store is selling long dresses, short dresses and high-low dresses, which are “short in the front and long in the back,” she said.

“We’re selling a ton of those because they kind of have both worlds, a short and a long dress in one,” Cagle said.

Knoxville Prom 101 is a seasonal store, she said, which opens in December and closes in May and sells prom dresses and accessories. This is the store’s first year.

Dresses range in price, she said.

“We start at $99, and our most expensive dress this year was $650,” she said. “... The bulk of our dresses are between $250 and $399.”

The store closes for the season May 11, and she said, beginning May 3, an end-of-the-season sale

will mark everything down to $99.

She thinks prom makes girls feel special.

“Everybody deserves to feel special at different times in their lives, and for the girls, I think prom gives them an opportunity to dress a different way,” she said. “They never get to dress that way, and they never get to feel that special. So I think that’s really important for the girls.”

Angela Scruggs, sales associate at Savvi Formalwear on 115 N. Seven Oaks Drive, said business goes up during prom season.

“It seems like guys are really liking our single-button and two-button notch lapel jackets,” Scruggs said. “But I guess the most important thing when they come in is really to match the girl’s dress with their vest and tie, and we do our best to make that happen.”

She called prom a rite of passage for high schoolers.

“A lot of seniors are kind of celebrating their time in high school with prom,” she said.

“It’s their last big hurrah before they graduate and everything.”

Elite Limos owner Mike Haley said safety is a key factor in riding in a limo on prom night.

“It’s better to have the kids ride in a limo for prom and be safe than be out there with the other 100, 150 new, inexperienced drivers, plus all the other drivers,” he said.

Prom season is one of the business’ busiest times, he said, and the business does between two to 10 proms in a day.

Farragut High School’s baseball team has endured some recent struggles.

But the Admirals appeared to get back on track with a 14-4 District 4-AAA victory over Maryville Thursday, April 18, on Armed Forces Night at FHS’s John Heatherly Field.

Farragut entered its home game Admirals 14 against the Rebels 4 Rebels having dropped three of its last four games, including a 7-6 nineinning loss to Maryville in Blount County 24 hours earlier.

“We’ve been playing badly,” said Admirals’ senior shortstop Nick Senzel. “Our defense has been bad and we’ve got to get our bats going.”

“It’s the little things that make all the difference,” said Farragut sophomore right-hander Sierra Sims, who picked up the victory as BHS fell to 16-10 overall, 7-4 in the district. “It’s the little things that matter. The little things are all that counts.”

Hardin Valley Academy’s quite success youth movement in 2013 had two Hawks 6 m o r e shining Irish 2 performers, among others, Saturday afternoon against Knoxville Catholic.

While Dylan Young, senior left fielder, punched out three hits to help lead the Hawks past the Irish 6-2 at HVA April 20, sophomore Ian Pung was producing with aluminum and leather.

About Pung's defense at third base, which included a diving stab of a line drive and a barehanded charge scoop for an out at first, “The play he made in the seventh [scoop] is a college

baseball play, absolutely phenomenal,” said HVA head coach Kirk Renegar, whose Hawks improved to 17-7 while entering the week still perfect and on top in District 3-AAA at 10-0.

Harris said the older Hawks “help me out a ton. I work out with Anthony [Gambuzza] all the time. He’s my man out in the outfield.”

Not to be forgotten was senior pitching staff ace Tommy Weiler.

“As good as Tommy Weiler’s been this year,” Renegar said, as the lefty allowed seven hits and one walk with two strikeouts.

“Really showed the kind of guy he is in terms of competing and forcing the action. Went seven innings on about 80 pitches.”

Despite leaving five men on base the first two innings, HVA took advantage of a two-out

“She pitched an awfully good game,” Sams said. “I think she had one no-hitter last year.”

“I felt really good,” Steinbacher said. “I like to throw it a little bit of everywhere

“We just can't get the bat on the ball; I think we're just overthinking it,” said Katie Cooper, HVA sophomore third baseman.

Elizabeth Hembree’s double highlighted a four-run Bearden first inning.

A fourth inning single by Haley Mullin produced a run. A Rachael Goodson single set up an RBI double from Maxey

House. After a bunt single by Harly Hennen, Catie Monroe’s two-RBI single made it 8-0 BHS. Four more runs in the sixth finished off Hardin Valley. An infield single by Goodson and a walk to Aleani Ray preceded an RBI groundout by Hennen.

trict with the victory, got its offense clicking early. The Admirals, who fell behind 1-0 in the top of the first inning, scored three runs in the bottom of the frame.

Farragut, which received plenty of help from Rebels’ starting pitcher Daniel Raby, plated the tying run when Brett Hagenow drew a bases-loaded walk. Raby surrendered four free passes in the inning and plunked Chase Chambers.

The Admirals, who sent nine hitters to the plate, took a 3-1 lead on Alex Schuettler’s two-run

single.

It was more of the same for Farragut in the bottom of the second. The Admirals added four runs in the inning, while managing just two hits.

FHS center fielder Jammer Strickland, who tripled in the first inning and reached base four times, opened the inning with a single. He advanced to second and third on wild pitches.

He came home when Rebels’ reliever Jake McCormick balked.

Gabe Waldrop scored on a wild pitch and David Logan added an RBI single before Senzel scored when Patrick Raby reached on an error.

Strickland said that he and the

Admirals were disappointed with their effort in the first game against the Rebels April 17.

“Personally, I was motivated,” said Strickland, who went 3-for-3, with a triple, a double, two runs, a walk and two runs batted in. “I felt like I let my team down [in the first Maryville game]. I had chances to give us a lead but I had some bad at-bats.”

Sophomore left-hander Eric Lessig pitched the final two innings, surrendering one hit and a walk with two strikeouts.

FHS put an early end to the contest with seven runs in the fifth led by Strickland’s two-run double, Duncan Pence’s two run single and Senzel’s RBI single.

thing but one of the county’s best teams in this battle between two tradition-rich powerhouses.

“We’re like a bad AYSO team,” Bearden head coach Eric Turner said. “We’re emotional zombies.

We didn’t play with any intensity.

We didn’t play with any heart. We just didn’t play with anything.

When you couple those two things together, you get what you get.”

Farragut (10-3, 4-1) was coming off a home loss to Kingsport Dobyns-Bennett earlier in the week. The setback gave the Ads an extra bit of motivation.

The Admirals, who scored five goals over the first 40 minutes, jumped ahead 1-0 when Kai Miettinen buried a shot past Bearden junior goalkeeper Rhys Fielder in the seventh minute.

“The defender was on me and I spun and Fletcher Ekern got me the ball and I put in on the left corner,” Miettinen said. “This is really the first time that I’ve ever got to play much against Bearden. I’ve either been hurt or

not playing up to my potential.”

Farragut’s offense continued to click throughout the first half.

The Admirals scored five goals on 10 shots.

Emilio Moore gave the Ads a 20 lead with a marker in the 12th minute and Ethan Snow made it 3-0 with a tally seven minutes later. Snow, Farragut’s sophomore forward, said he took advantage of a defensive lapse by the Bulldogs. “I was unmarked and I put the ball in,” he said. “I got it in on the corner.”

Bearden’s offense was scarcely heard from on this night. The Bulldogs managed just three shots in the first half. Gus Green, the Admirals’ first-year senior netminder, easily made those saves. The Admirals outshot the Soccer Dawgs 19-6 in the match.

Mendy closed out the first-half scoring with a pair of markers.

Mendy made it 4-0 in the 34th minute. He scored again, three minutes later, when he took a pass from Connor MacLean and promptly banged it past Fielder.

Mendy completed his hat trick in the second half when he knocked in a header.
